Scammers

Caroline Calloway sets the record straight

From our US edition

As I was on FaceTime with Caroline Calloway, the Washington Post published a review of her memoir, Scammer, alongside one of a book written by her archnemesis, ex-best friend and former love interest, Natalie Beach. From her squealing — and the way her phone was blowing up with calls from friends who’d read the piece — I could make an educated guess about its contents. “Beach is a talented essayist with a promising career ahead of her. Calloway is a lunatic who has already written a masterpiece,” Calloway read, with an emphasis on “lunatic” and a twinkle in her eye. “At one point they call Natalie quote unquote, good enough. And honestly, that is so brutal in its own fucking way,” she told me. The Post was right.

From our US edition

What do Tom Brady and Taylor Swift have in common? Both blonde, both wealthy, both recently single. As for their differences: Brady is one of a group of celebrities being slapped with a multi-billion-dollar class action lawsuit and Tay-Tay is touring around singing songs about her exes unscathed, after bothering to do her due diligence on FTX. A lawyer suing celebrities for promoting FTX, Adam Moskowitz, appeared on The Scoop podcast to discuss the lawsuit, claiming that the plaintiffs are seeking over $5 billion from FTX's celebrity endorsers Brady, Shaquille O'Neal and Larry David. Cockburn can't wait to see this plotline on the next season of Curb Your Enthusiasm. “I mean, why would you possibly promote cryptocurrency if it may be an unregistered security?
